Weather and disaster at Le Havre ship Paris
Cloudy with showers turning to clearing and warmer conditions. Temperatures ranged around 38 F today with a 24 hour low of 36 and high near 9 0 F noted in yesterday’s report. A Italian dockworker was questioned as fires consumed the liner Paris in Le Havre center port after a suspicious alert two days earlier. Firefighters said the bakery caused the blaze while a barber shop sparked another flame. Firefighters hoped to salvage $500000 worth of French art objects. The Paris, carrying 3200 passengers, sank after listing heavily and breaking free from moorings. Officials fear salvaging the ship will disrupt the port and drydock work. The Paris valued at about 15000000 dollars.
